"Finally, I suspect that it is by entering that deep place inside us where our secrets are kept that we come perhaps closer than we do anywhere else to the One who, whether we realize it or not, is of all our secrets the most telling and the most precious we have to tell." Frederick Buechner

A Little Geography Lesson
Note: A little advice to MadPriest, with a grateful hat tip to John.
THE GEOGRAPHY OF A WOMAN
Between 18 and 22, a woman is like Africa, half discovered, half wild, fertile and naturally beautiful!
Between 23 and 30, a woman is like Europe, well developed and open to trade, especially for someone with cash.
Between 31 and 35, a woman is like Spain , very hot, relaxed and convinced of her own beauty.
Between 36 and 40, a woman is like Greece, gently aging but still a warm and desirable place to visit.
Between 41 and 50, a woman is like Great Britain, with a glorious and all conquering past.
Between 51 and 60, a woman is like Israel , has been through war and doesn't make the same mistakes twice, takes care of business.
Between 61 and 70, a woman is like Canada, self-preserving but open to meeting new people.
After 70, she becomes like Tibet , wildly beautiful, with a mysterious past and the wisdom of the ages...only those with an adventurous spirit and a thirst for spiritual knowledge visit there.
THE GEOGRAPHY OF A MAN
Between 1 and 70, a man is like Iran, ruled by nuts.

ReplyDeleteWell, duh.
LOL!
Great! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteGlad to know that I'm actually 15 years younger than what's on my birth certificate....

I guess I truly am an anglophile...!

Thank you. Now I am sure that I can pass geopraphy this semester.
ReplyDeleteDear Elizabeth,
ReplyDeleteWith this post, you’ve disappointed me. Despite popular opinion to the contrary, most men don’t let their crotches rule their lives. If I had posted a joke that denigrated women in the same way that your joke denigrates men, I’d be called a pathetic misogynist.
Respectfully,
Barry Fernelius

ReplyDelete1 - 70? You mean there are 7 more years of this!?!? I look forward to maturity, if I somehow make it.
ReplyDeleteFWIW

Barry, I'm sorry to have disappointed you. This had been sent to me by not one, not two, but three different men. It's a joke. I'm sorry you took offense.
ReplyDeleteI did just read, however, of a study which reported that men with an IQ over 100 have an erotic thought every 45 second. Men with an IQ over 120 have an erotic thought every 20 seconds.
I'm tired just thinking about what that must be like! Me? I'm like Israel. I'm just takin' care of my own business.
I have a major in Geography but it was never like this :-)
ReplyDeleteThank God I have just over 5 years until I turn 70 (however not counting)
EXCELLENT! And I imagine pretty close to the truth too.
